Wealthy punters pay £3,500.00 GBP (US$5,800) per day to patrol the most dangerous waters in the world hoping to be attacked by raiders. link Wolfhag |

Sounds like a public service. Bring back letters of marque. |

Making the world safer would involve hunting the Russians. |

Wish they would cruise off Houthi shores…  |

And life once again imitates art. There was a joke flyer about cruise liners offering this service (daily sweepstakes to use the captains personal twin 50 cal) back at the height of the pirate attacks in the early 2000's. |

"Wish they would cruise off Houthi shores…" I reckon the Houthis would make short work of a pirate-hunting yacht. I can't see the punters having anything that would see off an ASCM or ASBM |
